Inkster Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 don't know where you heard that from before...best thing to do is burn at maybe 8x just to be sure cos sometimes if you burn at too fast a speed it doesn't copy properly and then it's a waste of a cd.Just what I've experienced anyway.

Guest Bailz Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 There really shouldn't be a problem with cd players depending on the burn rate. Main thing to watch out for is that the faster you burn a cd the more chance there is of getting an error which will make the cd skip.I usually burn at 8x(1,200kbps) and my cds pretty much always turn out fine.Bailz.

MTA Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 For Audio Cd's I never go over 4x or the Error correction has to work overtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Atom Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 There really shouldn't be a problem with cd players depending on the burn rate.It's true though, there is... I have had this problem with cds burnt at 52X that would only work in certain players (only once, because since then I have burnt a lot slower). I consider 8X to be pretty much safe, and sometimes burn faster (up to 24X for audio). Data seems to be fine whatever speed you burn at.That's just my experience, my advice would be to buy a decent cd player (preferably a standalone stacking system) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeker Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 i remember mark at exile studios saying he didn't make copy any audi cd's at more than 4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Atom Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 I do know people who swear by 4X and won't burn any faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Caz Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 A good 16x for me but it takes longer for me as i use the volume correction option which is just splendid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
